Homogenization of periodic bi-isotropic composite materials

In this paper, we present a new method for homogenizing the bi-periodic materials with bi-isotropic components phases. The presented method is a numerical method based on the finite element method to compute the local electromagnetic properties. The homogenized constitutive parameters are expressed...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we present a new method for homogenizing the bi-periodic materials with bi-isotropic components phases. The presented method is a numerical method based on the finite element method to compute the local electromagnetic properties. The homogenized constitutive parameters are expressed as a function of the macroscopic electromagnetic properties which are obtained from the local properties. The obtained results are compared to Unfolding Finite Element Method and Maxwell-Garnett formulas.
